Alongside mobiles and smartphones, social networking is the hottest topic in the digital space right now. Some companies, particularly those in pure consumer marketing, have taken to social media with great results. But the vast majority are still just testing the water, typically beginning by integrating Twitter and Facebook feeds. The great news here is that Kentico has superb out-of-the-box social media tools, which are easy to set up and utilise alongside your existing social network sites and activity.

Social Kentico

A great set of social networking/media tools in Kentico CMS includes the following:

  • Blogs
  • Booking system
  • Content rating
  • Event calendar
  • Forums
  • Friends
  • Groups
  • Image gallery
  • Media library
  • Message boards
  • Messaging (incl. private)
  • Newsletter
  • Online forms
  • Polls (incl. graphs)
  • Wikis
  • Workgroups

Kentico CMS is ideal for building social media tools into existing and new websites. There is a great deal of flexibility in each module, allowing you to tailor exactly the kind of social experience you would like your visitors to have.

Integrating third-party social networks and media sites – such as YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and others – is straightforward and easy to achieve. This means not just linking to your own social media sites, but integrating the content and conversations from those sites into your own. This can be achieved for public-facing websites and also for private portals, extranets and intranets.
